How to keep a dream diary:

Buy a blank page book especially to record your nightly dreams and make a note of the following:

The date of the dream and moon phase

Write the dream in the present tense

Describe the events in the dream

What are your emotions?

Who else is in the dream? Describe the personality of this person.

Are any words spoken?

What colours can you see?

If you can buy a voice activated recorder and immediately upon waking, describe your dream and listen back in the morning.

How to refresh your dream-life!

Pull out the furniture and clean behind the cupboards. Turn over the mattress and give both sides a vacuuming. If possible paint your bed room sky blue. Tidy and keep everything in its place. Put your favourite clothes in the front of your wardrobe. Throw away feather pillows or duvets that can cause stuffy noses and red eyes and launder bedding. Buy some new nightwear - or for the best and luxurious sleep ever - go naked and prepare for the very best dreams of the year.
